wont start

[scot]

i have a 03 pitbull that i took tanks,and fenders off to paint over the winter. i just put it back together now it wont start. i got good battery power all it does is makes a real loud clicking sound like the starter wont engage. any diagnostic help?

double check all your connections and make sure you have fuel and spark - you have turned your fuel back on right?? if not you might have drained your battery trying to start it

Sounds like you have a bad starter. First check the battery and the next step would be your starter if you didn't touch anything else except remove the tins. Tap on the solenoid it might have frozed up.

Thats the exact problems i had on my 01 pitbull i went ahead and got the starter rebuilt and is working great so far
